The LEED 800 MCP with integral shutter has LEED and AES capabilities using a miniature electron gun, set of concentric grids and a conductive, phosphor coated screen. In addition, this optic model incorporates the high gain of microchannel plates. It is an extremely reliable high-performance LEED instrument which operates with up to date digital power supply. The retraction mechanism has outstanding mechanical properties ensuring smooth day-to-day operation as experienced by our large user base over decades. The wide viewing angle (101° at 75mm sample distance) and minimal shadowing of the screen by the miniature electron gun give a maximum visible LEED pattern.
The LEED 800 MCP is especially good at providing LEED and AES data of organic samples. The larger size allows for higher angular and energy resolution and the gain from the MCPs allows better focusing of LEED imaging.
For seamless integration, 3D step files are available for all models.
LEED 800 MCP (Model BDL800IR-MCP) calculation formula for Flange-Sample distance
& Retraction length:
FS = 165.5mm + 2 LMX – OV; where FS is the flange to sample distance, LMX is the retraction
length and OV is the overlapping length.

The LEED 800 MCP optics is controlled using either a LPS075-D or LPS300-D power supply. The LPS075-D is used to operate the optic in LEED mode only whereas the LPS300-D in conjunction with the LOA10-AES lock-in controller and AUS30 input coupler is used to operate the optics in LEED and AES modes. Integral shutter (Model ISH-8) and LaB6 filament (Model LaB6) are further options. The MCPS01/02 controllers are used for operation of the microchannel plates.
